Nonstop Database, HiRDB Version 9 System Operation Guide
This subsection describes the methods of performing a grouped system switchover when you are using HA Monitor as your cluster software. To perform a grouped system switchover when using a cluster software product other than HA Monitor, see the documentation for that cluster software product.
The following explanation assumes a grouped system switchover configuration set up in HiRDB and OpenTP1.
To perform a grouped system switchover, use the group operand and termcommand operand of HA Monitor to define a grouped system switchover configuration. For details about how to define a grouped system switchover configuration, see the manual High-Availability System Monitoring Facility. The following table lists system processing when a grouped system switchover is performed (in the monitor mode).
Table 26-31 System processing when a grouped system switchover is performed (in the monitor mode)
Error description | System processing |
---|---|
An error occurred that prevents hardware from restarting, or an error occurred when the operating system or HA Monitor was restarting (a system failure occurred). | Performs a system switchover. Also performs switchovers for OpenTP1 and HiRDB. |
An error occurred in OpenTP1 and OpenTP1 terminated abnormally (OpenTP1 must be in the server mode). | Performs a system switchover. When a system switchover is performed in OpenTP1, a grouped system switchover is also performed in HiRDB. |
An error occurred in HiRDB and HiRDB terminated abnormally. | Does not perform a system switchover. Restarts HiRDB on the running system. |
If you are using HiRDB Datareplicator, you must perform grouped system switchovers with both HiRDB and HiRDB Datareplicator. In such a case, use the group operand of HA Monitor to define HiRDB and HiRDB Datareplicator in the same server group. For details about how to define a grouped system switchover configuration, see the manual High-Availability System Monitoring Facility. For details about the operations involved in performing a system switchover when using HiRDB Datareplicator, see the HiRDB Datareplicator Version 8 Description, User's Guide and Operator's Guide.
If you define a grouped system switchover configuration in advance, you can use the planned system switchover functionality of HA Monitor's monswap command to perform grouped system switchovers.
